Candyman (Tinderbox 1986)

Текст песни Siouxsie and the Banshees - Candyman (Tinderbox 1986)

[Verse 1]
Sickly sweet, his poison seeks
For the young ones who don't understand
The danger in his hands
With a jaundiced wink
See his cunning slink
Oh, trust in me, my pretty one
Come walk with me, my helpless one

[Chorus]
Candyman

[Verse 2]
Syrup lies upon your tongue
Gelatin saliva spills
A flash of a guillotine a smile

[Chorus]
Candyman
Oh, candyman

[Bridge]
No pity for him
Their misery screams unspeakable things
No pity for him
Their misery screams unspeakable things
Candyman
A cool missile, yes, it's in his smile
With open arms to welcome you
Beware the masked pretender
He always lies, this candyman
Those lips conspire in treachery
To strike in cloak and dagger, see!
[Chorus]
Candyman
Oh, candyman

[Verse 3]
And all the children, he warns, "Don't tell,"
Those threats are sold
With their guilt and shame
They think they're to blame for

[Outro]
Candyman
Candyman
Candyman
Candyman
